This paper attempts to describe the meaning of social messages in the text of public service advertisements “Stereotype Z”. Data analysts use  Riffaterre’s semiotic approach. Through heuristic and hermenetic reading, analysis of the indirect expressions, matrix, model, variant, and hypogra, results show that the text of public service advertisements "Stereotype Z” contains  a social  message that persuade the young generation (generation Z) to be more critical about the problems in their suroundings.
